ASA Sheet
ASA is not only maintained the main characteristics of the ABS for high impact, it also combines the weather resistance advantage of acrylic to extend the product application for outdoor purposes. Given its resistance to impact, chemicals, weather, and UV light, even after long time usage, ASA keeps certain level of impact strength and color, it also stable at size, therefore; ASA are also extensively used in the building & construction, patio roofs; outdoor furniture; Outdoor application housing,…etc, could be widely used in outdoor environment.

|
|
ASA has outstanding resistance to weathering, chemical, good processability, balance mechanical properties. |

|
Weather resistance |
10 times higher than ABS |
Not good as ASA |
|
Outdoor usage |
With high weather resistance, ASA are able to apply directly outdoor environments |
It can only be used outdoors after surface coating |
|
Impact Strength |
Keep certain level of impact strength when expose to sunlight |
ABS parts become brittle when continually exposed to sunlight, impact strength decrease |
|
Productivity |
Direct use, no defect rate problem, fast processing speed |
Require surface coating, Yield rate reduce |
